I’ve got the movement covered. I’m releasing parts of the AI one at a time.
This New Ocean - Game Rundown and Open Beta release date
-
This New Ocean is a game set in space, after the events of World of Conquest, where you, and a small number of crew members are tasked with restarting humanity on a new planet. With Advanced atmospheric and geological equipment, finding such a planet will be easy. Once you have your settlement established, you are responsible for defending and upgrading the settlement to become the best offworld civilization to exist.
Objectives:
- Find a livable planet to settle on
- Upgrade your settlement
- Build, expand and upgrade your settlement’s Military fleet
- Defend your settlement from unknown attackers.
The game will be released in Open Beta tomorrow. Expect a ton of bugs.
Good Luck, Captain!

@sirbots This seems fun! It sounds like the game Astroneer. It’s where you collect resources to upgrade your home and go to different planets.

@the_true_odst The game is gonna be multiplayer, and I need someone to make bots as I would have to make a whole new AI from scratch.

@sirbots I could help, but I might confuse you with all the jumbo I use. Just tell me how to program them and I will look into it

@the_true_odst No. It takes place after the events in World of Conquest. You are just trying to restart humanity on a new planet.

@sirbots I might be able to do the AI thing tomorrow but I am going to turn on Dev Mode on my computer to access Linux and stuff so it might be delayed
